Hello Bikini Bottom, Can I buy (4) 16 lb., black weights shipped to 13760 ? I can Paypal you with a total. Thanks, Don (Sutton 44).

Blade Runners better than nothing, BUT 1) you can't "tune" them - they snap, and 2) they are not genuine silver plated. I have wondered several times if it would be worth the learning curve and expense to set up a very small "clandestine" silver plating operation to try to re-plate my own used up Sutton blanks and any others I could scrape up. Seems like the plating issue at Sutton has been going on long enough that if they really wanted, they would have found a solution. I have spoken with the owner several times over the last few years about the pent up demand for the product and that even if they passed on substantially higher plating cost they may still be at a price point much more attractive to their loyal customers than "scalper" prices on the online auction site. He doesn't seem to be particularly motivated to address the issue. OK, free country, his business not mine. Seems like their is more than enough demand that someone would step up. My humble opinion.

I will take them. Let me know where to PayPal you.

Would you take $65 shipped to Binghamton area ?

Still for sale ?

Patriot, I agree completely. I bought a couple around four years ago, used them once, and took them off the boat. I have lost too many weights with much less violent "jolt" than these. Went back to Scotty. much smoother and more fishable IMO. I will make somebody a great deal, complete with swivel bases, vector double rod holders, and sub-troll cable and antenna on one of them !

Nautitroller, though they look a lot like Suttons, they are not spring brass, they are a different metal, and hard to "tune" without stressing the metal. Also, I don't know if they are silver plate. Tuned hammered B/S Suttons out fish "out of the tissue paper" by a wide margin for me. An exagerrated "S" curve in 44s, 22s, 31s, and especially the larger 88s makes a world of difference at sub-2mph trolling speeds. Add a hand-fished sweep, pause trolling motion, and lakers love those tuned Suttons. Go Slowww ! On and off humps, back and forth onto and off of reefs, contours, close always as close to bottom as you can without picking up zebras. The Spoonman copies are better than heavy metal, but if you can find Suttons, break out the wallet , hold your nose, and buy them !

I will take the two sections of track and the bert's swivel bases

I will take the Suttons.
